Appointments

Zest Acupuncture and Wellness is based in High Peak. I currently practice in Whaley Bridge and serve the area of High Peak, Stockport, and Manchester. Appointments are also offered online.

There are three basic choices, depending on the time of the session. The time correlates with the depth of the approach. We can achieve much more in one 2h-session than in two 1h-sessions.

• A 2h-appointment /￡120 meant for the initial consultation, to address complex problems or to DE-STRESS on a deep level
• A 1.5h-appointment/￡100 for an ongoing treatment (based on acupuncture or other therapies such as gua-sha, no-needle, myofascial release) or a one-off session. Meant for complex issues or multiple sites of pain.
• A 1h-appointment/￡69 for an ongoing treatment, maintenance or boost.

Additionally, there is a quick 30-minute acupuncture approach for those who are busy.

If you’re coming for the first time, I recommend an Initial Consultation. We’ll discuss the necessary changes and practices, personalised to you, to help you get back to wellness.

If you don’t know what is best for you, please choose acupuncture. If a proper consultation is necessary, it will require a 2h-session next time.

Forms

If you can please fill the forms below

– consultation form
– consent form

and bring them with you or please arrive 10 min earlier before your first appointment.

Timing

Please come promptly for your appointment unless you need to fill the forms.

Depending on the need and mutual agreement, your treatment will either include one approach, say acupuncture or cupping or a mix. In general, I use acupuncture with the elements of Tuina.

Chronic and difficult cases may need more time. Please note that the initial consultation lasts longer (up to 1h30min).

Cancellation fee

Please be aware that appointments cancelled with less than 24h notice will be charged at £20.

Appointments missed without cancellation are to be paid in full.

What to wear

Acupuncture

Please come in soft, loose, simple clothing as it will be easy to access the skin for needling legs and arms. If other parts of the body will be required to be needled then you will be asked to take off your top or trousers / skirt.

Tuina

Please come in soft, loose, simple clothing as otherwise the applied techniques may loose their practicability, while assisted stretching may become impossible.

Please wear no jeans, no skirt and no dress.

The Tuina medicinal massage and singing bowl massage is applied through clothing, when you either lie down on a massage table or are seated, depending on the condition. You will be covered with a cotton sheet which facilitates the smoothness of the techniques used. Occasionally, a special ointment can be rubbed into the skin to help with deep muscle work, or a massage oil may be rubbed into the neck, hands or feet.

Cupping and gua sha

They are applied to the bare skin so it is necessary to remove some of your clothes, e.g. a top. Please be also aware that cupping may leave some bruising that will disappear usually within a week time. Gua sha leaves bruising, so please be aware of that too.
